<p class="lead magick-description">There are copious amounts of extra data associated with images (metadata), beyond the actual image pixels. This metadata can be useful, either for display, or for various calculations, or in modifying the behavior of later image processing operations.  You can utilize percent escapes in a number of options, for example in <a href="command-line-options.html#format_identify_">-format</a> or in montage <a href="command-line-options.html#label" >-label</a>, to print various properties and other settings associated with an image.</p>

<table class="table table-hover">

        modified as part of normal image processing.  These include
        width, height, depth, image type (colorspace), timing delays, and
        background color. Most specific percent escapes is to access this

<h3>Percent Escape Handling</h3>

<p>If you request a percent escape such as <code>%[key]</code> the setting
is looked for in the following order until the first match has been
found...</p>

<ol>
<li>Handle special prefixes such as 'artifact:' 'option:' 'exif:', or
    'fx:'.  This includes and calculations and or globs of those prefixes such
    as 'exif:*' or 'artifact:*' (see below).</li>

<li>If <code>key</code> contains a glob pattern (but no known prefix)
    search free-form properties table.</li>

<li>If <code>key</code> is a special image 'attribute' name (see list
    above) return the associated or calculated image attribute.</li>

<li>Search for setting as a free-form 'property'</li>
<li>Search for setting as a free-form 'artifact'</li>
<li>Search for setting as a free-form 'option'</li>

<li>Replace escape with empty string, and perhaps produce a warning.</li>
</ol>

<p>Remember, all long name forms of percent escapes are handled in a is case
insensitive manner. </p>

<p>You can now access the Artifact and Option
free-form string tables directly, allowing you to override the above sequence,
and avoid accessing an attribute or property of the same name.</p>

<pre class="highlight"><code>%[artifact:<var>setting</var>]
%[option:<var>setting</var>]
</code></pre>

<p>Escape handling requires access to an image container.  If none are available, a blank image is created to ensure the expression can be processed and a value returned.  For example, <code>magick -print "%[fx:.8765/3.14]" null: null:</code>.</p>

<h3>Single Letter Attribute Percent Escapes</h3>

<p>Here are common single letter escapes (short form) is used to report the most
common attributes and properties of an image, such as: the image filename
filename, type, width, height. </p>

<p>Here is a sample command and its output for an image with filename
<code>bird.miff</code> and whose width is 512 and height is 480.</p>

<pre class="highlight"><code>-> identify -format "%m:%f %wx%h" bird.miff
MIFF:bird.miff 512x480
</code></pre>

<p>Note that all single letter percent escapes can also be used using long
form (from IM version 6.7.6-9, see next). For example <code>%[f]</code> is
equivalent to the <code>%f</code> short form. </p>

<p><b>WARNING</b>: short form percent escapes are NOT performed when the percent
is after a number.  For example,  <code>10%x10</code> does not expand the
<code>%x</code> as a percent escape.  If you specifically want to expand the
'x', use the long form which overrides this special case. EG:
<code>10%[x]10</code>. </p>

<p>Also be warned that calculated attributes can take some time to generate,
especially for large images.</p>

<h3>Properties</h3>

<p>All other long forms of percent escapes (not single letter long form) are
handled in a case insensitive manner. Such escapes will attempt to look
up that name specific data sources. </p>

<p>The primary search space (if not a specific attribute listed above) is
a free-form property string.  Such strings are associated and saved with
images, and are typically set using either the <a href="command-line-options.html#set" >-set</a>
CLI option (or API equivalent), or from special convenience options
(such as <a href="command-line-options.html#label"
>-label</a>, <a href="command-line-options.html#comment"
>-comment</a>, <a href="command-line-options.html#caption"
>-caption</a>). </p>

<p>These convenience options are globally saved (as 'global options' so thay can
be set before images are read), and later are transferred to the property of
individual images, only when they are read in. At that time any internal
percent escape present is then handled. </p>

<p>To change a property of an image already in memory, you need to use <a
href="command-line-options.html#set" >-set</a>.
</p>

<p>Note that properties, like attributes (and profiles), are saved with
images when write, if the image file format allows. </p>


<h3>Artifacts and Options</h3>

<p>The previous percent escapes are associated with the primary Attributes and
Properties. Which is the original and primary focus of such percent escapes.
</p>

<p>However there are many operational settings that are used by various
ImageMagick operators that can be useful to set and later access.  These
consist of per-image Artifacts, and Global options (associated with a list of
images, typically the current image list).</p>

<p>Note that the major difference between an artifact and a property is that
artifacts, being an internal operational setting, is not saved with images (if
such is possible). </p>

<p>For example when you use <code>-define 'distort:viewport=100x100'</code> you
are in fact generating a global option, which the <a href="command-line-options.html#distort"
>-distort</a> operator will use to modify its behavior (distorted output
image 'view'). </p>

<p>An Option is essentially an Artifact that has been stored globally as part
of a list of images (specifically a 'Wand' of images). As such they are
identical, in that a Option, is simply a global Artifact for all the
associated images. </p>

<p>As such you can use <code>-set 'option:distort:viewport' '100x100'</code> to
achieve the same result of setting a Artifact for the disort operation to use.
</p>

<p><b>Internal Handling of a Global Option...</b></p>

<p>The Core library ('MagickCore') does not generally directly understand
Global Options. As such, continuing the previous example, the
<code>DistortImages()</code> function only looks up an artifact to discover if
a 'viewport' has been provided to it. </p>

<p>How Global Options are used when a library function requests an Artifact is
one of the key differences between IMv6 and IMv7.</p>

<p>Sets a link back to the global options
data, so that if a specific per-image Artifact is not found , then it will
look for a equivalent global Option for that image list.  directly.  This
saves coping these free-form options into artifacts repeatedly, and means you
can now separately define a global option for a list, and a individual
overriding artifact for a specific image in that list. </p>

<p>Note that many API's that do not use Wands (PerlMagick for example using
arrays of images rather than a Wand). In these API's you will not have Global
Options, only per-image Artifacts. </p>

<p>In summery a Global Option, if available, is equivalent to a per-image
Artifact. </p>


<h3>Glob-Pattern Listing of Properties, Artifacts and Options</h3>

<p>The <var>setting</var> can contain a glob pattern. As such you can
now list all free-form string properties, artifacts, and options, (but not
specific image attributes) using...</p>

<pre class="highlight"><code>magick ... \
   -print "__Properties__\n%[*]" \
   -print "__Artifacts__\n%[artifact:*]" \
   -print "__Options__\n%[option:*]" \
   ...
</code></pre>

<p> The format of glob patterns are very specific and as such is generally
only used to list specific settings, such as when debugging, rather than being
used for image processing use. </p>


<h3>Calculated Percent Escape Prefixes</h3>

<p>There are some special prefixes (before the first ':') which performs
calculations based on the user provided string that follows that prefix.  For
example you can do a numerical calculation use <code>%[fx:...]</code> to
evaluate the given <a href="fx.html">FX</a> expressions:</p>

<pre class="highlight"><code>%[fx:<var>expression</var>]
</code></pre>

<p>Use <code>pixel:</code> or <code>hex:</code> to evaluate a pixel color as defined by the <a
href="fx.html">FX</a>
expression:</p>

<pre class="highlight"><code>%[pixel:<var>expression</var>]
</code></pre>

<p>Use <a href="command-line-options.html#define">-define</a> to specify the color compliance (e.g. <code>-define pixel:compliance=css</code>)</p>.

<h3>Specific Profile Percent Escape Prefixes</h3>

<p>You can also use the following special formatting syntax to print EXIF
mage meta-data that was included in the image read in:</p>

<pre class="highlight"><code>%[EXIF:<var>tag</var>]
</code></pre>

<p>Choose <var>tag</var> from the following:</p>

<pre class="pre-scrollable"><code>
*  (print all EXIF tags, in keyword=data format)
!  (print all EXIF tags, in tag_number data format)
#hhhh (print data for EXIF tag #hhhh)
